Wulan Butong Tourist Area

For the first time, self-driving perfectly avoids all the minefields, super smooth🤣🫶🏼 Day1 ＆Day2 in the previous note📚 Day3 is not a special forces itinerary, but it gathers sunrise, starry sky, mountains and lakes, and sunset glow in one day. 5:00 Go to Ulan Buh Film and Television Base to watch the sunrise. The time was delayed a bit in the middle of buying tickets. 🧡If you only go for two or three days, it is highly recommended to go out early, because there will be congested sections on the single-lane two-way road to the Ulan Buh scenic area around seven or eight in the morning, which will really delay a lot of time~ Like us, we decided to get up early the next day to watch the sunrise because of the congestion on the way to Ulan Buh the day before and the attraction of the sunrise and the mist at the film and television base. 🎫The entrance ticket to the scenic area is 120 yuan per person, which can be purchased online. 7:00 Go to Duolun Lake, which takes 1 hour and 30 minutes. 🧡The self-driving route is from the east gate to the west gate. It is strongly recommended to go around the lake, because the west ring line is a hundred times more beautiful than the east ring line. The more you go around, the more you feel the mountains and lakes. ⚠️Note: There is a section of dirt road in the middle of the west ring line. Cars can also pass, but the road is bumpy and needs to be driven slowly. ⌛️Time: More than 3 hours (we went around the lake, stopped and took pictures) 🎫The entrance ticket to the scenic area is 40 yuan per person, which can be purchased online. Return to the Mechanical Forest Farm for lunch at noon, and then return to the hotel to rest until 16:00. 16:25 Go to Yudaokou—Taiyang Lake Scenic Area. 🎫The full-price ticket for the scenic area is 80 yuan per person (including Yudaokou Taiyang Lake, Turtle Mountain, Peach Mountain Lake, etc.), and the student ticket is half price. P.S. Taiyang Lake is still beautiful, the air is particularly fresh, but it is a bit inferior compared to Duolun Lake. 17:50 Rush to Turtle Mountain before sunset. 🧡If you want to watch the sunset, you should be a little bit earlier. There is a plank road from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain. We rushed to the top of the mountain before the sunset completely passed. We didn't even have time to catch our breath and started shooting haha, but fortunately, there were not many people after climbing to the top, and most of the tourists had already gone down the mountain. After the sunset, we went to the second store of Old Mongolian Meat Pie, which was delicious. We will write about it in the next article~ After eating, we returned to the hotel to wash and rest. 22:30 Go to the vicinity of the Mongolian Camp Resort to watch the stars. 🧡The most anticipated itinerary of this trip, this limited scenery is rare, it is strongly recommended to join the itinerary, it is a pity not to watch a starry sky in a place without light pollution. ⚠️Note: It's particularly cold at night. As a southerner who can withstand the cold, I was shivering in a sweater and a three-in-one assault suit. It is recommended to wear a down jacket directly. After watching the starry sky, go straight back to the hotel to rest~ Day4 can leisurely return to Beijing~ This day is really what I would call God's arrangement haha, not sleepy at all, started sleeping after eating in the afternoon until 16:00, all kinds of limited beautiful scenery have been seen, and sleep is also sufficient! You can take it to copy homework!!! This wave of escape from the city allows you to have a panoramic view of the beautiful scenery🥰Let's meet the autumn of Ulan Buh next year~ It's really worth the trip!🧡🍁

Ulan Buh, also known as the Ulan Buh Tourism Area, is under the jurisdiction of Keshiketeng Banner, Chifeng City, Inner Mongolia. Located in the southwestern part of Keshiketeng Banner, Chifeng City, it includes three scenic areas: the Ulan Buh Grassland, the Ulan Buh Ancient Battlefield, and the Huamugou Forest Area. It is a tourism area that integrates mountains, water, flowers, grass, forests, and historical sites. Ulan Buh has a temperate semi-arid continental monsoon climate, with a large area of primary and secondary forests, arbor and shrub species, and grassland herbaceous plants. The Ulan Buh Tourism Area has eight scenic spots including the Ulan Buh Ancient Battlefield, Wucail Mountain, Elephant Group Mountain, Jiapigou, and others. Situated in the transitional zone between hills and plains, it presents characteristics completely different from other grasslands. With its enchanting European-style grassland scenery, it has become a famous base for film and television location shooting. The grassland here has four distinct features: First is the combination of forest and grassland. Here, the forest and grassland are organically combined, possessing both the elegant and gentle charm of the south and the rough and vigorous strength of the north, embodying the beauty of both southern grace and northern boldness. Second is the vast meadows. Although not endless, one can feel the poetic sentiment of the Northern Dynasties folk song, 'The sky is like a dome, covering the wilderness. The sky is vast, the field is boundless, the wind blows the grass low and reveals the cattle and sheep,' when standing here. Third is the 'hundred-flower meadow' landscape. In the meadow area around the film and television base, each summer, the grassland is full of life, with flowers blooming in abundance, changing the dominant flower species every ten or so days. Your visit this time might be yellow, but in ten days it could be pink, red... Each batch is dominated by a leading flower species, with other colors complementing it. Famous or not, they are diverse and colorful, weaving patches of colorful carpets on the large meadows and hillsides, forming clusters of elusive colorful clouds. The blue sky, white clouds, green mountains, and clear waters set off the noisy world of flowers, sketching out a series of vibrant and colorful European-style oil paintings. Fourth is the birch forest landscape. The most distinctive feature is the alternating density, sparse enough to gallop horses, dense enough to block the wind. On the gentle slopes at the edge of the meadows, some areas are covered with birch trees, forming dense forests impenetrable to the wind. Venturing in, the branches and leaves block out the sun, and it's hard to tell how large the forest is. In some areas, the birch trees are sparsely scattered, with single trees, clusters of three or five, or dozens forming a group, which is a sight to behold. Coupled with the varied terrain here, there are grasslands, wetlands, canyons, and hills. In the early morning and evening, the slanting sun casts highlights on the ridges, creating a contrast of light and shadow that renders the large environment's hazy beauty, forming a series of ancient Greek oil paintings.

Picture③④ The autumn here only lasts for a short 20 days, the best viewing period is the end of September, herds of cattle and sheep and vast grasslands, poplar forests, really better than imagined. Picture⑤⑥ It's the golden autumn season for travel, compared to other places, the biggest advantage is the continuous snow-capped mountains and autumn leaves blend together, it's just right. This place is known as 'hell of the body, heaven of the soul', this is the holy land where countless city workers yearn for🏔️

| The autumn here is like a paradise of oil paintings, so beautiful that it moves one to tears!! Ulan Buh| The green is not the exclusive calling card of the grasslands, the autumn grasslands are even more colorful, especially the autumn of the Ulan Buh grassland, filled with that alluring magic, Ulan Buh is located at the southernmost tip of Keshiketeng Banner in Inner Mongolia, separated from Hebei's Saihanba by a boundary river, combining grassland, lakes, wetlands, and forest landscapes into one. Ulan Buh was once a royal hunting ground, and anything that caught the royal eye was definitely of the finest quality, due to its location at the intersection of hills and plains, it presents a completely different natural feature from other grasslands. Come autumn, this place transforms into a paradise of oil paintings, outshining other autumn scenes in the country with overwhelming momentum, becoming a colorful and dreamy world, / During autumn, the temperature difference between day and night is significant, you might still be wearing short sleeves during the day, but at night you need to prepare a light down jacket to avoid catching a cold. The autumn season is quite dry, and the ultraviolet rays are strong, so sun protection is very important

The autumn grasslands, where all things merge into distant mountains like dark green eyebrows, and heaven and earth blend into one hue. The sky is as blue as a gemstone, clouds as white as cotton, and the sunlight sprinkles on the earth, warm and pleasant. This season is the most beautiful moment of the Ulan Butong Grassland in Keshiketeng Banner, Chifeng. The car steadily enters the grassland, and the wind from the window brings a cool breeze, with the primitive scent and the vast beauty rushing towards me. A sense of expectation and excitement arises in my heart, as if I am in a fairy tale world. Along the way, herds of cattle and sheep leisurely graze on the green grass, as if dancing to a wonderful rhythm. At the edge of the grassland, patches of cosmos flowers bloom into a colorful sea of flowers, like a splendid and colorful painting. In the distance, horses gallop, and flocks of wild birds soar in the sky, forming a beautiful natural picture. Following the navigation, I drive forward. Suddenly, a lake appears before my eyes. The lake water is as calm as a mirror, reflecting the sky and distant mountains, stunningly beautiful. I get out of the car, step onto the gentle slope by the lake, and crush a small piece of green plant in my hand, immediately releasing a fresh grassy fragrance. I close my eyes, take a deep breath, as if I can smell the breath of nature. Continuing to drive, I arrive at a famous campsite. This is a gathering place for tourists, with cozy tents, delicious roasted whole lamb, and a blazing bonfire. As night falls, the stars are brilliant, as if covering the entire sky. I sit by the bonfire, listening to the local herders playing the Morin Khuur, feeling peaceful and content. The next day, I come to the most famous attraction of Keshiketeng Banner—Chifeng. Here is a magnificent and splendid palace, with golden walls reflecting the sunlight, dazzling to behold. I slowly ascend the steps, and the viewing platform at the top allows me to see the entire beauty of Chifeng. Surrounded by mountains and shrouded in clouds, it's like being in a fairyland. Leaving Chifeng, I drive towards the end of the Ulan Butong Grassland. This is the end of the grassland and the northernmost place in Inner Mongolia. Standing here, I can feel the vastness and infinite power of nature. The grassland here seems to have no boundaries, connected to the sky and merged with the earth. The autumn journey through the Ulan Butong Grassland has allowed me to experience the unique charm of natural beauty. The vast grassland, the freely running cattle and sheep, and the dancing flowers have all become unique memories deep in my heart. I promise myself that whenever the hustle and bustle of the city overwhelms me, I will return here to find inner peace and freedom.

Ulan Butong and Saihanba, although administratively different, are both located on the infinitely scenic Weichang Plateau. Ulan Butong in the north, means 'red hill' in Mongolian, belongs to Keshiketeng Banner in Inner Mongolia. In 1964, a military horse farm was established here to provide war horses for border defense. Saihanba in the south, means 'beautiful ridge' in Mongolian, is under the jurisdiction of Weichang County, Hebei. The two places are divided by the winding Turgen River. Ulan Butong is surrounded by mountains and water, with beautiful lakes and mountains. Saihanba was once a barren hill due to war, but later it was filled with artificial forests and turned green again. Today, the vast forest is already the 'source of the river, the hometown of the clouds, the world of flowers'. Although the customs of the two places are different, the scenery is unique and makes people linger. Perhaps it is because the two places complement each other that makes the beauty of the plateau even more touching.

Autumn should be wonderful, if you are still around... Driving from the Qise Senlin International Tourism Resort in Shenxian Valley, Fengning Bashang, Chengde, Hebei to the Khansur International Eco-Ranch on the Ulan Butong Grassland in Inner Mongolia, the scenery along the way is endlessly beautiful. The autumn in the north is so rich and stunning, making it the perfect time to visit the grasslands for an autumn vacation. The magnificent landscapes of our motherland, the vast grasslands, the endless forests, taking a stroll, a look, and a pause, the world is so beautiful! It's hard not to feel refreshed in body and mind, as nature's miraculous work creates such beautiful scenery. Travel is about going from a place where you are tired of living to a place where others are tired of living, and then being amazed! The warm sun of autumn, the autumn breeze blowing the autumn leaves dancing in the air, the white clouds floating in the blue sky, as if they were cotton candy that you could reach out and grab. Such a beautiful and enchanting autumn, such a vast grassland, such wonderful times, I hope we can all cherish them well. Action speaks louder than words

☀️A little potato from the south, I mustered up the courage to visit the frigid land of Bashang. 📸Bashang: A grassland in Inner Mongolia accessible from Beijing, where the emperor used to hunt in the autumn during the Qing dynasty. In spring, Bashang is covered with flowers, in summer the water and grass are lush with herds of cattle and sheep, in autumn the forests are a riot of color, and in winter the ground is blanketed with snow. 🗺️【Route】 Joined a car tour group, gathering in Beijing Day1️⃣ Beijing — Weichang County — Saihanba Forest Park — Ulan Butong Day2️⃣ Ulan Butong — Tongfeng Gully (river fog, rime ice) — Nanjing — Hamaba (village photography, light and shadow) — Baijiawopu (sunset) — Ulan Butong Day3️⃣ Ulan Butong — Xiaohe Head (snow buns, rime ice) — Weichang County — Beijing ☀️【Temperature】 Around minus 10 to minus 20 degrees Celsius 🧷【Gear】 ✅Top: I wore a quick-dry shirt, fleece, Uniqlo light down jacket, thick down jacket (yes, 2 down jackets) ✅Bottom: Thermal leggings, 2 pairs of fleece-lined sweatpants (yes, 3 pairs of pants) ✅Shoes: Outdoor shoes + heated insoles + very thick socks, plus snow gaiters, because the snow is deep, unless your snow boots are very tall, it's recommended to add snow gaiters to prevent snow from falling into the shoes, which can get wet ✅Gloves: Cotton gloves ✅Hat: Down jacket's hood ✅Scarf: Woolen scarf ➡️With this set, only my hands were cold, they were freezing while taking photos Toes were a bit cold too, need to move around more All the gear I wore, I didn't buy specially, they are just clothes I normally wear in Shanghai, just layered up... ✏️【Impressions】 ✔️In the extreme cold weather, it's okay if there's sunshine, just wear more clothes, it's just the exposed parts that are miserable. If you wear a mask, it will collect moisture, and glasses will frost up, without a mask it's just cold... ✔️We had an off-road vehicle all the way, so we could only stand being outside for at most half an hour before we had to roll back into the car to warm up. ✔️Regarding the scenery, personally, I think too much of it can lead to aesthetic fatigue, I feel 2-3 days is about right... ✔️Bashang in winter is really sparsely populated, there are only a few restaurants, hotels, and shops open, the good thing is it's quiet with few people, the downside is it's too quiet...... Ulan Butong Tourist Area

📝Inner Mongolia part3📝 ❄️❄️❄️❄️ The snow world here does not refer to the Snow World, but the literal meaning of a snow world. A 5-hour drive, snow-capped mountains and plains, a snow world of galloping horses and rime. 📷📷📷📷 I have to say, Ulan Buh is really too beautiful, I fell in love with it at a glance in winter. I can imagine its beauty in spring🌸, summer🍃, and autumn🍁. I have decided that I will find a chance to go to Ulan Buh again in spring, summer, and autumn this year, trying to collect its beautiful scenery in all four seasons.
